Started flush today.
Changed out the water from each plant with clean water no nutes.
P2 has become even more purple, looks really nice right now.
All trichomes look cloudy, not quite Amber on any yet.
P1 had a couple sugar leaves that turned brown that I had to pull. I'm hoping it's not bud rot, but I'll be monitoring it for the next week. I might have to harvest a bit earlier than I wanted to if I can detect bud rot.
It's been damp here almost every morning and I was already concerned the morning dew on the plants might cause some rot. Thankfully the cooler temps should prevent a quick spread.
@KratkyGrow, good observation. I'll keep this in mind next time that I'll pop seeds. Was actually thinking about starting the new lot in one set and pick survivors for individual nursing.
Again, good to know. Thanks for sharing.
@Med_in_Tropic,
I know! That was pretty disappointing.
In that batch I don't think I had any stressor conditions that would have made them more likely to be males. (I've read that red light, high heat, fluxing heat, or nutrient overload can all lead to higher rates of males)
I did plant them all out of one tote bin, so the roots got all tangled, not sure if that would do anything or not. But that did help me learn when 7 of the 8 get pulled, and the roots are too tangled to seperate, they just rotted in the bin and created extra worry on my end for the one female. I also think the female developed slowest, and was the smallest plant, maybe because her roots were getting choked out by the males. I wouldn't try planting more than one in a single tote again unless I knew they were all females.
Low vpd - humid low temp - There will be less transpiration. I agree with you that more leaves are better for the plants . Then the can pump more water and nutrients to grow.
